What if the soldier cannot get back to a place to change his vest? Last summer I ate 4 RPG's before I even got to the next change of socks. That was in a 14 day period where the only restocking we got were airdropped canned tuna and bullets.
And surprise, yes, governments are cheap. Armored vests are expensive. There isn't exactly a pile of spares just waiting for you to turn your used one in.
I wonder if this is going to cause any unpleasant and potentially expensive legal repercussions for CCP, from users who have lost data while trying to fix the issue? Why legal repercussions for CCP? CCP didn't write the operating system that lets any old program overwrite critical system files. Who is responsible for that?
I have stopped coding for IE about a year ago. I write only standard markup now, and the browser can display it however it chooses. I found that I was coding for four hours to get the layout that I want, then adding another eight hours of aggravation to make it work in IE6. In wine/browsercam. Because IE doesn't even run on my platform of choice.
I came to the conclusion that if developers stop coding specifically for IE's bugs, then end users will see it for the crap that it is and switch. Call me a dreamer (but I'm not the only one), but as I code for a hobby, I can afford to take the risk. Those who insist upon using a broken browser can see a broken webpage. At the bottom of each page I display a "this site does not support IE" message with an explanation and an [paid] link to Firefox. I make about $10 a month from that link, so I'm not in it for the money. But that means that I've educated an average of 10 people a month. That is more satisfying than the money.
For an example, take a look at http://what-is-what.com/ (disclaimer: my site). Note that IE7 displays it just fine, but in IE6 it is almost unusable. That's fine with me. The browser wars are back, but this time it's not BrowserX vs. BroswerY. It's Internet Explorer vs. W3C standard code.
And no, I'm not some linux/firefox fanboi gone extremist. Quite the opposite: I'm not coding for _any_ browser. Just standards-compliant code and let the browsers do with it as they please.
If Apple is using the Windows codebase, then the flaw _are_still_there_. Thus the malware will run. Additionally, not all malware exploits flaws. May of these flaws were intentional design decisions (windows messenger, anyone?) that were changed in service packs. Thus, if Apple were using the Windows codebase this would be even less secure than Windows, as Windows has been (partially) patched since. Unless Apple is writing their own patches (unlikely), or using wine (less unlikely), or writing their own interpreter (unlikely).
This is my sixth Ford: I've gone through a '69 Mustang, '72 Mustang, '84 T-bird, '88 Turbocoupe, and an '88 Continental before this Focus. I've also worked as a service tech at a Ford dealer for a few months. Ford is an amazing company, and each time they renew themselves they do it right. Until I work my way up to a BMW, I'll be sticking with Fords.
For the interested: the 351W from the '69 Mustang was all I left of the car after wrecking it. When I blew up the 2.3 turbo in the Turbocoupe I replaced it with the 351W. Did all the work myself: it's one of my favorite projects to this day. As the front of the Turbocoupe was smashed, I replaced it with the bumpercover of a '92 Mustang. 375HP, 5-speed '88 Thunderstang.
While this is yet another technical issue with the ISS, when will this end? I am all for the space program, but there have been some major issues lately. Are you kidding? Do you not have any idea how fucking complex and unique the ISS is? My 2008 Ford Focus has gone in for repairs three times in the four months that I've owned it, and Ford has been building those motherfuckers for over 100 years now. The ISS is the third of it's kind, designed and built from scratch and completely hand made. In space! By people wearing spacesuits! You don't expect a problem every now and then?!? I'd go so far as to say that problems are the major mission of the ISS. The creation and solving of problems is building experience for NASA, the Russians, the Europeans, and everybody else involved. Not to mention those brave guys up there actually manning the thing.
Problems or not, the ISS is one hell of an achievement. The fact that it hasn't killed anybody yet is either a miracle or testimony to the amazing engineering that has been invested in it.
Malicious/harmful lies are torts and are punishable by civil law--not by people with guns knocking you to the ground, tasering you, dragging you off and locking up up with violent criminals. That's Canada. We're talking about Israel here.
I am sure that most anti-evolution parents would want their child to grow up to marry a good looking person of the opposite sex with lots of money and no history of disease in the family. No, no, Tom Cruise is a scientologist, not a creationist.
First, Stop calling me sir. What is this, a Nigerian 409 scam?
Second, my sister's sex life is my responsibility as she is my SISTER. I care for her well being. Even (and especially) when she is unable to do it herself. You come down here and try to fuck her. I'll have your own dick wandering about in your own intestines, traveling through them the wrong way. I might shove it so far up there it'll bulge in your throat.
Third, if 14 is the age of consent in Germany, then, well, what part of the country in nice to visit this time of year? I'm heading over to Myspace.de right now.
Actually, it's mostly the _less_ technical friends of mine who have moved to Ubuntu/Fedora. The fact that they don't need to learn (or worry) about virus/malware (at least for the time being I am always careful to remind) is what draws them to it. And I don't that an ActiveX control will work very well on any Linux distro.
Therefore, simple instructions are a must. These people set up their POP3 once, they can do it again. The lack of a proxy server, however, is rather surprising and disappointing.
The difference is, that the average downloader is not changing the words a little then claiming the work as their own. Those people are called "rap artists".
They are creationists: that's what they do. Take the work of one and claim that another had created it. Haven't you hear what they're claiming about mother nature's creations?
My little sister listed her age on Myspace as 17 when she was 14. Need I say more? After seeing that, I'm all for this legislation. I'd even like to see the children themselves held responsible: they don't seem to be held accountable for their own actions at all these days.
the original perpetrator of the "Loch Ness Monster" hoax publicly admitted to it about 20 years ago in the UK, just before dying... The story of Nessie goes back hundreds of years. Even the researchers who proved that the photo you are referring to was a fake (one year before the admission) believe the monster to be real. More info here.
I am a fool? The speed limits are designed for poorly maintained vehicles on poorly maintained roads, driven by poor drivers in poor weather. When I'm in my 2008 Ford Focus, with over 15 years of accident-free driving behind me, clear skies and clear road in front of me, I can afford to add another 40 KPH very safely to the legal limit. If I get caught I will not cry, as I am knowingly breaking the law. That said, I would like to see other very dangerous drivers, slow though they might be, be held accountable for the hazards that they cause.
Speeding is not the only traffic offence, and it is also one of the least likely to be dangerous. I'd like to see helicopters used to catch those who tailgate, weave in and out of traffic, cut people off, do make-up/cellphone/eat while driving, and other assorted violations that ARE dangerous. Note that these are the hardest offenders to catch and prosecute, so any new tool is welcome.
Disclaimer: I am a speeder. A safe speeder, though, who respects the weather, the vehicle's and road's capabilities, and other drivers.

I realized that after I read TFA, but of course that was only after I shot off my mouth here. What a troll I've become!

Reefer, a synonym for cannabis or spliff (a cannabis cigarette).
...such as reefer containers and...I was making a point that I could be a dickhead too. Are you not aware of the Standard Creepiness Rule?

The reason is because I don't want anyone coming around trying to fuck my 14 year old sister. 17 is kinda-sorta soon-to-be legal. 14 is not.
The difference is, that the average downloader is not changing the words a little then claiming the work as their own. Those people are called "rap artists".

God I feel old saying that. I'm only 30, I swear!
